1. For long-lasting effects fragrance should be applied to the body’s pulse points. These include the wrist, behind the ear, crease of your arm and knee, and the base of your throat. Pulse points give off more body heat as this is where blood vessels are closest to the skin, therefore continually warming and releasing your fragrance. Also, for a lasting effect spraying fragrance lower on the body allows it to rise throughout the day. Layering with the corresponding bath or shower gel and lotion, also is another good practice to help your fragrance last longer.
2. Having the right Perfume at the right time. Normally people will only go for one bottle or maximum two bottles of perfumes, after using them up they will restock with the same perfume they have been using. This is not a wise choice as using the same perfume over and over again will create boredom to people around you and yourself. There are tons of perfumes available in the market and each year there's more than 50 new perfumes in the Market. In order to have the right Perfume, we must at least have more than 3 perfumes in our collection to spice up our daily life. For example, keep a woody smell perfume for a night out with your special ones, use a bottle of Marine perfume for your daily college classes, and use a bottle of perfume with spice for some formal meetings, try to put more colors and choices in your life.
3. Did you know that a perfume has 3 layers - the top note, the middle note and the base note? When you first spray a perfume, the first whiff is the top note, which will slowly change to middle before settling into base note, which will linger on your skin. The right way to test a perfume is not on a piece of card, but on your skin. Our skin's chemistry is different from everybody else's, therefore some perfumes smell different on us. So try the perfume you intend to buy first on your skin, and walk around for an hour or two. If you like it, then it's right for you! Our nose can only register three perfumes before it gets confused, so sniff some coffee beans to clear it up!
